For the Peppers and Onions:

  • 4 bell peppers, sliced (vary the colors for visual appeal)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Cook Chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chicken in olive oil until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté Peppers and Onions: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and peppers. Sauté until they reach your desired level of tenderness.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the pan. Stir in the fajita seasoning mix, sour cream, and cream cheese. Mix well to combine.
  5. Assemble and Bake: Sprinkle the top with grated cheddar cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
